Projects and programmes are approved and funded to generate
benefits. Project Management for the Creation of Organisational
Value proposes a complete framework that seeks to support such an
objective - from project selection and definition, through
execution, and beyond implementation of deliverables until benefits
are secured. Because it is preoccupied with deliverables, accepted
project management practice is flawed. Project Management for the
Creation of Organisational Value proposes an alternative approach,
which seeks a flow of target outcomes for the organisation
investing in the project. Project Management for the Creation of
Organisational Value provides support for all those who play a role
of leadership in projects at different levels. Senior executives,
practitioners and academics will find in this book a comprehensive
guide to the conduct of projects and programmes, which includes
robust models, a set of consistent principles, an integrated
glossary, enabling tools, illustrative examples and case studies. A
companion workbook to this text for instructors and students is
available online at http://extras.springer.com. The workbook
illustrates project management concepts using the approach
presented in this book and contains a range of exercises.

This book sheds light on the processes and cognitions used by
managers to successfully implement strategies while navigating the
strategy and change interface. It applies the latest thinking from
the resource-based literature, in particular the idea that high
performing organisations have become adept at honing and utilising
value creating dynamic capabilities. Key processes and cognitions
help organisational leaders sense opportunities and threats as well
as shrewdly seize strategic opportunities to advantageously enhance
performance. The book also adopts an institutional view; that is,
it assumes that organisations must satisfy their stakeholders while
navigating a range of influences, including other organisations,
markets, laws, quality standards, conventions, and cultural norms.
This book conceptualises corporate strategy as an amalgam of four
fundamental strategies: the organisation's financial, customer
value creation, resource, and non-market strategies. These
strategies address the capital, product and services, and resource
markets as well as various non-market institutions. Successfully
integrating and implementing these four strategies allow
organisations to enable their employees' multidisciplinary talents.
By approaching strategy in this way, the book demonstrates why it
is important to monitor changes to the organisation's strategic
context and helps it identify the practices, collaborations, and
projects necessary to achieve spectacular strategic change.
Winner of 2020 PMI David I. Cleland Project Management Literature
Award This book is a complete project management toolkit for
project leaders in business, research and industry. Projects are
approved and financed to generate benefits. Project Management: A
Benefit Realisation Approach proposes a complete framework that
supports this objective - from project selection and definition,
through execution, and beyond implementation of deliverables until
benefits are secured. The book is the first to explain the creation
of organisational value by suggesting a complete,
internally-consistent and theoretically rigorous benefit-focused
project management methodology, supported with an analytical
technique: benefit engineering. Benefit engineering offers a
practical approach to the design and maintenance of an
organisation's project portfolio. Building upon the authors'
earlier successful book, Project Management for the Creation of
Organisational Value, this comprehensively revised and expanded new
book contains the addition of new chapters on project realisation.
The book offers a rigorous explanation of how benefits emerge from
a project. This approach is developed and strengthened - resulting
in a completely client-oriented view of a project. Senior
executives, practitioners, students and academics will find in this
book a comprehensive guide to the conduct of projects, which
includes robust models, a set of consistent principles, an
integrated glossary, enabling tools, illustrative examples and case
studies.
Challenges and Best Practices of Managing Government Projects and
Programs provides a crucial foundation for practitioners,
